@cbsnews: President Trump on Friday announced more than $180 million in grants to boost educational and trade programs for the mining industry, part of a bid to increase critical mineral production. "Accredited mining programs in the United States now graduate less than 170 mining engineers each year, while China graduates more than 3,000," Trump said. "And half of our current mining workforce is set to retire within the next three years." The Department of Energy is launching a $100 million grant program aimed at expanding the mining and critical mineral workforce by dramatically increasing the number of people with degrees in those areas over the next two years, and the military is offering more than $80 million in additional funding to three universities. CBS News was first to report on the educational grant programs early Friday.
